The fate of rotating massive stars across cosmic times

R. Hirschi, K. Goodman, G. Meynet +9

The initial mass and metallicity of stars both have a strong impact on their fate. Stellar axial rotation also has a strong impact on the structure and evolution of massive stars.…

Stellar evolution through the Red Supergiant phase

Sylvia Ekström, Cyril Georgy

Massive stars less massive than ~30 Msol evolve into a red supergiant after the main sequence. Given a standard IMF, this means about 80% of all single massive stars will experienc…

Linear adiabatic analysis for general relativistic instability in primordial accreting supermassive stars

Hideyuki Saio, Devesh Nandal, Sylvia Ekstroem +1

Accreting supermassive stars of will eventually collapse directly to a black hole via the general relativistic (GR) instability. Such direct collapses of…

The formation of the stripped envelope type II b Supernova progenitors: Rotation, Metallicity and Overshooting

Gang Long, Hanfeng Song, Georges Meynet +6

Type IIb supernovae are believed to originate from core-collapse progenitors having kept only a very thin hydrogen envelope. We aim to explore how some physical factors, such as ro…

Close binary evolution based on Gaia DR2: the origin of late WC-type Wolf-Rayet stars with low luminosity

Weiguo Peng, Hanfeng Song, Georges Meynet +8

The observed late-type WC Wolf-Rayet stars (WC7-9) with low luminosity below in the HR diagram cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by the evolutionary…
